Dr. Cao Guangzhe
Causes of delayed brain development in children are associated with normal growth variations, such as congenital genetic factors and intrauterine growth restriction. Additionally, pathological factors may contribute, including chromosomal abnormalities, metabolic disorders, and skeletal diseases. Delayed brain development is also linked to chronic malnutrition and endocrine disorders.
